M&M’S first-ever, all-female Flipping the Status Quo packs were debuted this January, featuring the Brown, Green and Purple M&M’S spokes candies for the first time both on packs and within. The program celebrates the new limited-edition packs, as well as women doing incredible work in their respective fields and in their daily lives. As a part of the program, M&M’S has donated almost $1 million to organizations that empower women, as well as 20 women who are flipping the status quo in their everyday lives who are each receiving $10,000 grants to further fund their flips. Congratulations to all the winners!
